Judgment For The Profanation Of The Temple And Sanctuary

22 And I have turned My face from them, And they have polluted My hidden place, Yea, come into it have destroyers, and polluted it. 23 Make the chain; for the land Hath been full of bloody judgments, And the city hath been full of violence. 24 And I have brought in the wicked of the nations, And they have possessed their houses, And I have caused to cease the excellency of the strong, And polluted have been those sanctifying them.
